Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomThe entrance gate is a bit narrow for the car.
The pool was really nice and so were the owners, everything was clean, and the area was very peaceful, can't get food delievery to the area though, so you either have to go pick up your food or eat out, you could also cook as the kitchen is equipped for such but since it was a short stay we decided to just eat out. Definitely recommend renting a car, just like we did, so it's easier to get around. Will definitely go back in the future.

United KingdomHad an issue with my booking and spent the first night in the apartment next door and not the studio as booked. The owner came to apologise and sorted a swap the following morning. They refunded the difference of the one night stay. Had a bad flying ant problem inside the apartment, coming from the kitchen. The owner sent the cleaner very quickly to hoover and spray the apartment. The Wifi drops out and isn’t very strong when it’s connected. I had to use mobile data. The location is wrong on booking.com, find it on google maps instead.
Amazing views. Nice pool. Studio is nicely decorated. Helpful staff.

Czech RepublicUnfortunately the mattress was a bit too soft for me, so I ended up with a lot of back pain. However my boyfriend had no problems at all, so I believe its everyone preferences.
Great location, very quiet and private place. Ideal for people who would like to rest and enjoy country side. Even with all 3 rooms booked, pool was perfectly fine to share and we haven’t heard our neighbours at all.

New ZealandEverything was great
What a fabulous apartment. The pool was perfect, very deep at the deep end, big enough to actually swim in and a perfect temp when we were there in June. The unit had a comfortable bed, kitchen with everything you need, good size bathroom and over all very spacious apartment. It is a way from the coast but we had a car and didn't mind the drive and enjoyed eating in and cooking our own meals for a change. Supermarket about 10mins away by car. Didn't have a lot of contact with the owner/hostess? Always friendly if a little slow in replying.

NetherlandsOnly downside was the VERY poor wifi, normally I don't care, but because you are remote you also don't have 4G internet, especially if you want to do some work this place is not recommended. And the ants in the cutlery drawer.
Nice and quiet accomadation among the orange fields far from the tourist crowds. Nice pool and fresh orange juice.

NetherlandsNothing whatsoever
We liked the quietness. The room was clean and big enough (especially for the money we paid). The direct surroundings contained some beautiful villas and we enjoyed walking amongst them. In three days we only saw one car passing by (no doubt a resident). The views from our private roof were excellent.

PolandI hate writing bad reviews, but I feel obliged to warn other guests. If you are planning to book the Apartment with Terrace, please take a look at the pictures. The description says GARDEN VIEWS and MOUNTAIN VIEWS. But what you get is a wall. The terrace is not connected to the apartment! You need to take stairs to reach it. Following that logic the apartment also has pool views, because the pool is also just around the corner… The apartment gets zero sun, and because of that the air is stale. It’s like staying in a wet cave. The walls are full of black mold, and the air con has not been cleaned for a long time. It was bad to the extent that it felt like a health hazard at this point. Because of that we decided to leave earlier.
It was very well equipped and clean (apart from the mold, that is). The location was nice and calm. The owners very friendly. The pool attached to other apartments looked amazing. I can imagine that the other apartments are great.
